FAQs

I have never done coding before. Is the course aimed at beginners?

Yes, the course is aimed at beginners, so you don’t need any previous experience with coding.

We will assume zero knowledge to start with, and then introduce you to HTML, CSS and JavaScript whilst you design and prototype an app over 6 Saturdays.

I don't have an app idea. Can I still join this course?

Yes, it is not necessary to have an app idea to join this course.

We will demonstrate how to code an app using a template which we'll share with you. We will encourage you to edit that template with your own ideas and content. Or if you prefer, you can replicate the demo app.

In previous courses, many of the participants didn't have an idea to start with but quickly found their ideas were flowing as the course progessed.

I am a student. Do you offer student discounts?

No. The course is already heavily subsidised by our friends at the Royal Borough of Greenwich.

Do I get a qualification or certificate after the short course?

You can get a certificate of attendance if you email us and ask for it after completion. This is not a qualification but proof that you attended the course.

Is it possible to pay in installments?

No, you have to pay the course fee upfront.

What should I bring?

If you have a laptop which you're used to, we recommend you bring that with you. Make sure you have Google Chrome installed. Otherwise, MacBook laptops will be available for you to use whilst at Ravensbourne.

We also recommend bringing a notebook and pen for jotting down useful resources and capturing your ideas.

Will the lessons be accessible after the course?

Yes, you will get print-outs of all the presentations and coding demonstrations, for each of the 6 lessons. We will also share with you online tools and resources used by coders worldwide.
